^ That's a GT-R that is pumping out ONLY 1700HP at the wheels. Not fast enough.

He fucking pulled tire on that run.

Ivan is your friend.. shit. You run with only hawt chicks and dudes with ice in their veins. I'm guessing he was running the 240 back in the day.

IIRC Ivan was a domestic guy back in the day speaking of personal rides - but he dragged Supras and worked for SP.

Interesting.. he can definitely drive. That mile race where the back end got wild after hitting a bump in the 200's was nuts.

You would have to be going 165MPH flat to achieve the same time.

IOW, if you buzzed past him going 165MPH flat, he would have caught up.

Clio was the first AT car that I've driven.
and love that Trophy

but I didn't like how he compares Trophy with 106 or 205
Trophy is limited, 106 GTI is everywhere and a fun daily.. kind of king of hatchback although I am a Golf guy
